NASA Readies Endeavor as Emergency Rescue Shuttle for Atlantis

In a historic move, NASA has placed two ships on their launch pads at the same time. The Atlantis is being sent to repair the Hubble telescope.

The space shuttle Endeavor has been moved to a launch pad at the Kennedy Space Center, where it now sits next to the shuttle Atlantis. It is the first time in seven years that two space shuttles are at their launch pads simultaneously, according to Discover Magazine.
